           Summary: createPlugin() should decide whether Qt Plugins can be
                    created when pluginsEnabled is false
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: robert at roberthogan.net


The purpose of disabling plugins is to prevent the execution of third-party
code
that may be untrustworthy. Qt plugins are implemented by the client rather than
loaded from an external source, so the client should have the opportunity to
consider them separately from other plugins.

This patch permits the client's reimplementation of QWebPage::createPlugin() to
decide whether or not to create a Qt plugin, even when pluginsEnabled is false.
